About Me
I have enjoyed living in Jacksonville since I moved here in 2011. My family enjoys traveling and experiencing new restaurants in town.
My philosophy of care involves shared decision-making and allowing patients to make ultimate decisions. I aim to help patients feel empowered and confident in our therapeutic relationship.
It's important to give back to the community, and I volunteer once a month to help serve those who are less fortunate
